Walkers limited
by regents rule
Pedistrtan right-of-way on campus was officially
limited to marked crosswalks Saturday by a Board
of Regents vote, according to Dr. J. Lawrence Walk­up,
university president.
Dr. Walkup said that up to this point there was no
official designation and, because jaywalking has be­come
a safety problem on campus, the regents de­cided
on the ruling.
The agenda item at the regents' monthly meeting
was brought up without Dr. Walkup's knowledge. He
explained that the jaywalking issue was apparently
placed on the agenda by the regents' staff and, when
it was discussed, he said he was "caught napping."
Dr. Walkup said he had finished all of his agenda
material and at the time did not realize the jaywalk­ing
issue was being discussed by the regents.
However, he went on to explain that, 'This was
done to protect the walking student as well as the
driving student. It's not really importantwho'sright
and who's wrong, in this situation."
When asked about enforcement, Dr. Walkup said he
believed students would cooperate with the new desig­nations,
realizing it was done for their benefit.
Nothing was done up to this point, he said, because
the administration bad expected a new entrance to the
university otr Riordan Road .. near the Creative Arts
Building, to be opened by Sept. I. However, legal
problems have prevented that new entrance from being
built.
When the new entrance is completed, Dr. Walkup
said, Powers Dr., whichrunsinfrontof Liberal Arts
Building and Babbitt Hall, will bemadeintoa walldng
area and service road.
